18 Awesomely Awkard School Pictures [Photos]
I am not photogenic. Not at all. The majority of my tagged photos on Facebook have me half-blinking one eye, slightly resembling the face people make before they sneeze.
How To Be Awkward: With Your Ex
Sometimes you can manage to be friends with an ex. For example, I’m really good friends with an ex of mine and it’s not weird at all. And then sometimes there are those exes where you want it to be weird because maybe they’re a little bit into you still, and you’re not feeling it.

Tuffy Luv Helps You Relate to Others
If I am going to commit to a relationship, I have to be convinced we can make it last. Is it too much to ask for a guy who is kind and makes me laugh? (And who accepts me and my quirks?) I don’t think I lack confidence and I don’t think I’m hideous looking. I think my problem is I don’t know how to act and talk to guys.
Friday Faves: Biggest Bar Night of the Year. Nope! It’s Not Deja Vu
Welcome home for Thanksgiving! Where the lines at the bar are ridiculous, the drinks can’t come fast enough, and while you think it’s deja vu you’ve got going on – you actually ARE having the same 3-minute conversation with blasts from your not-so-distant past over and over and over.
Reasons Why I Don’t Miss My Teen Years
Our friends over at The Gloss recently did a post on all the things they don’t miss about being in their twenties. But as a twenty-something myself, I’ve gotta say – I’m pretty content. Sure, there are moments I wish I had a little more cash or that my job was a bit cushier. But some of their points were reminiscent of things I realized in my teens.
The Five Lies Your Older Friends Told You About Freshman Year
So you’re going to college. You got your GPA up and your admissions essay down, you got in, and now you’re out! Happy times are here. Your final days are characterized by blasting Lil’ Wayne with the sunroof open and going to lunch with the people with whom you’ve spent the last four, eight, or even 12 years of your life in school.
The Bachelor Pad: Awkward City
Yesterday was a busy day for me. I worked, I went to the dentist (and discovered I have 2 cavities….awesome), I worked out, and then I came home to settle in and watch a little Bachelor Pad (though, my friends all thought I was working more; I don’t need to hear their judgments about how I spend my evenings).

The CC Weekly Weigh In: Awkward Work Moments
This past Halloween my friends and I decided to put on our costumes early and head over to a bar to watch some college football. Fast forward to 3pm: I’m drunk, dressed up as Rainbow Bright and smoking cigarettes on the street while my male friend jokingly shoved his hand up my skirt. Nothing too out of the ordinary…until a business associate happened to walk by. And recognize me.
One Month Challenge: Fun with Fitness?
I am quite possibly the least athletic person you will ever meet. When I was 12, my mother asked me not to run in public. “It’s embarrassing,” she said. “There’s something about the way you run that’s just…weird.”
Web Spy: When I Had Braces…
Like most people, the years I spent with little metal boxes cemented to my teeth weren’t exactly my best. Not only did those years coincide with my awkward phase (no coincidence there), but my braces also hurt like crazy. And I’m pretty sure I spent 50% of my time in the bathroom picking food shrapnel out of my teeth.
Coupled. In Class
Back when Matt and I were first dating freshman year, it came time for us to register for our next semester’s classes. He and I both wanted to take Japanese as our foreign language, but agreed that it’d be better off if we took it at different times. He thought I’d be a distraction, and I didn’t want to compete with him over grades.
Welcome to the Biggest Bar Night of the Year
Thanksgiving is a-comin’, ladies! Time for some turkey, stuffing (my absolute favorite treat on earth) and reuniting with all your old home friends. Oh, and hopefully a major shopping spree with mom. Is there any other reason to come home?
Coupled. The Go-To Gal
As I said last week, when I’m with my friends I tend to feel like the mom of the group. Well, I’ve recently discovered that there are some perks to being the momma of the group and the only girl in my group in a long term relationship. I’ve become the one that everyone else comes to for advice or when they have an awkward relationship/sex questions.
The CC Weekly Weigh In: Advice To Our Younger Selves
Remember when you were 13 and everything seemed like the biggest deal ever and “OMG you are going to die because life is just so bad”? Oh, and you were wearing giant bell bottom jeans and a shirt with a condom pocket on the sleeve? Yeah, those were the days.
We’ve All Been There: The Awkward Run-In
So you’re finally settled back into home life for the summer. You’ve spent the last week catching up on sleep, home cooking and quality snuggle time with the dog and now it’s time to get out of the house. You rifle through the duffle bags you have yet to unpack, throw on some clothes and head out to visit your old high school haunts. Namely, the mall.
Overheard: Movin’ Out
(Two guys on move-out day, carrying cases of beer.)
Guy 1: Man, we’re gonna fill up an entire recycling bin.
RA, poking head out of room: Excuse me?
Guy 2: No, don’t worry, it’s okay. These are full of urine.
